Akasha Restaurant & Venue, Bali

Bamboo cathedral in the rice fields

Set about 15–20 minutes north of central Ubud on Jl. Sinta in Keliki, Akasha Restaurant & Venue is part of the New Earth Haven project, a bamboo-built haven dropped in the middle of rice terraces and jungle. Many visitors describe it less as a restaurant and more as a sanctuary, with glowing lamps at night and couches overlooking the paddies.

High‑vibe, health‑leaning menu

The kitchen leans into wellness: fresh juices, smoothie bowls, organic produce, and plenty of vegan and vegetarian choices run alongside keto, gluten‑free, fish and free‑range chicken options. Recent guests rave about dishes like butter chicken, burgers and gluten‑free gnocchi, while others single out vegan food and desserts such as vegan cheesecake as standouts. A few long‑time patrons, however, regret the pivot from earlier Balinese and fully vegan fare toward burgers, pasta and pizza.

Atmosphere: from serene to celebratory

Akasha’s split personality is part of its draw. On quiet days, people stretch out on upstairs couches, journal or work on laptops while listening to soft music and the sounds of wildlife after dark. At other times, it transforms into an event space for Ecstatic Dance, cacao ceremonies, DJ sets at sunset and yoga gatherings. Several reviews mention birthdays and special celebrations made memorable with flower decorations and attentive hosting.

Service, “island time” and staff warmth

Staff are often described as extremely friendly, smiling and accommodating, with some reviewers calling them the nicest they met in Bali and praising little touches like complimentary cocktails. That said, service can be slow—especially around 1pm or during busy events—and a few guests report language barriers or disorganisation, including one severe complaint about rude treatment and another about “ghost management” when things went wrong. Management has, in at least one case, processed a refund after issues with an overnight stay.

Food quality and pricing debate

On the plate, opinions diverge. Many diners call the food “outstanding”, “splendid” and “very, very good and tasty”, happy to pay higher‑than‑Ubud‑centre prices for the setting, cocktails and organic focus. Others find some dishes, especially pizza and certain pastas, bland or poorly executed, and a few feel nearby warungs do better for less. Portions, value and the now more Western‑leaning menu are recurring flashpoints.

Getting there and who it suits

Reaching Akasha means a drive or scooter ride along a narrow rural road to Tegallalang; several guests mention that it feels “in the middle of nowhere” but also praise the peaceful rice‑field views and starry night sky once you arrive. Travelers into spiritual or wellness‑oriented places, design lovers, and anyone happy to linger over a slow meal in a bamboo dreamscape will likely find Akasha a memorable destination, while those seeking quick, cheap, classic Balinese food may be better served closer to town.
